Ingredients

2 13.8 ounce cans of Pillsbury pizza dough
4 tablespoons butter , melted
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon garlic salt
½ teaspoon onion powder
grated parmesan cheese , for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees and spray the bottom of the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray.
Open each can of pizza dough and lay on a flat surface. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, carefully cut each piece of dough into 1-inch strips, cutting horizontal.
Take each strip and make garlic knots by gently tying a knot in the middle. Do not pull tight. .
Fold in the two loose sides and tuck into the knot. Work and pinch the dough to create a knotted ball.
In a small bowl, combine melted butter and seasonings. Mix until well blended. Using a silicone brush, brush the tops of each garlic knot until coated well.
Place dough knots in a single layer inside the air fryer, working batches at a time. Be sure the knots do not touch.
Place air fryer basket in the air fryer. Bake for 5-6 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove baked garlic knots from the air fryer. Sprinkle tops with grated parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.
Serve with any remaining butter sauce and marinara sauce for dipping.
